Creating an atmosphere in your home, or even your office is easy with all the different options out there - scented candles, diffusers, and wax melts. However, one that stands out (literally) above the rest have to be reed diffusers. This chic home fragrance option slowly disperses your favourite home fragrance over time to create a homey ambience of relaxation.
Reed Diffusers or Candles?
If you’re looking for the ultimate low-maintenance option when it comes to brightening up a place with a signature scent, diffusers are the best (and the chicest) option out there. For one, there’s no fire risk with a diffuser, unlike candles or wax warmers. They gently effuse their aroma throughout the room for a subtle lift.
A reed diffuser is also a safer option compared to a candle or fragrance plugs - they’re easier to place out of reach of little hands, unlike plug-ins that can get yanked out of wall sockets or candles that could be knocked over.
Diffusers work by using wooden reeds that absorb a rich, fragrant oil and evaporate that same scent in the air, releasing their aroma around the clock. If you’re finding that your diffuser doesn’t seem to be releasing as much scent anymore, but there’s still a lot of oil in the vessel, try this trick!
Remove the reeds from the diffuser and flip them over, making sure the parts that were submerged in the oil are now sticking out. This should revitalise and give new life to your diffuser - even the best diffusers need a little bit of help sometimes!
